It doesn't seem necessary to order brand name binder clips when these store brand seem to work just fine. I generally order the Large clips and the small size so all of our binding needs are met.

I tend to order store-brand frequently and so far Staples products are just fine. If you need something really specific you might need a brand-name but for most of the everyday little things Staples brand are good.
